Is it possible to stand this freely against the wall instead of attaching it to the beframe? Is it tall & heavy?

I wouldn't suggest it. It is a bit top heavy and the bottom third is just two legs. You could however bolt it to a wall using the same holes used to bolt it to a bed frame.

It MIGHT be possible to use against the wall without attaching to a bed frame, but then you would have to figure out a way to anchor it to the wall. I do not think It would be possible to simply "lean" it against the wall.

The headboard stands about 50" high and can be placed between the bedframe and wall. We'd previously secured ours to a frame, but now have it in a guest room with the bedframe holding it against the wall. I probably wouldn't use it this way unless something was holding it in place. The previous reply about anchoring the headboard is probably the best idea if you can't secure it to a frame.

I am not sure that it will be good to let it stand freely. It is not heavy at all and I think it will move around if you don't attach it to the bedframe.

I do not have mine attached to my bedframe. It is pinned to the wall by the weight of my mattress and boxspring.

It's not a free standing unit. I tried both of my bikes on it and it toppled over. Couldn't even rest it against the wall. The only way to secure was screw into wall. My storage unit has metal walls & prevents us from attaching anything. My thought if I have to screw into wall I'd get a wall mount unit.

Yes, I stand it against a wall when not in use. It's mostly quarter inch or so angle.

Can't help with the wall mount question because I didn't attempt it. Mine went on a Stand.

It's very sturdy - it shouldn't be a problem, especially since it's wider than the stand. The frame is really strong.

Not sure if it's free standing. It comes with a chain , we hung it from the ceiling . Think you could hang it from wall too . Very pleased with it, great quality!

Absolutely. That's we have it in front of. It doesn't attach to the frame but stands solidly.

First let me say that I love this workstation. It was far more heavy and sturdy that we were expecting. I have it installed in my office where we used an "L" kitchen countertop mounted to the wall as the desktop and the installation was perfect. I feel you would need a very strong and stable foundation to mount to, I don't believe a free standing desk would be strong enough as the workstation would make it top heavy and likely pull it over. Hope this helps!

It's on a wall in my house. It's about 24" high, definitely not a free standing item.

I gave this to my son. He says, "I'm not entirely sure. It comes with little alligator tooth brackets already attached, and I hung it up on the wall with them, so I never tried using it free-standing. its base and top are the same size, so if you did, it would likely be at risk of falling over. If you don't want to hang it up, I'd still suggest using the brackets on the back to attach it to the wall, even if the base is sitting. . . I would still attach it to the wall for safety." My own opinion is: With all the glass and, especially, if you intend to put breakables in it, I wouldn't risk it. I gave this to my son. He says, "I'm not entirely sure.

No much. Mine is free standing, but with a little cabinet trim work, see now reason why you could not.

you can lean it up against the wall but it will not sit alone, I hung mine with just a dry wall hanger and its been fine, but it does come with screws for the wall

can stand by itself but should be butted against a wall so it is more stable.

Would there be a wall or something supporting the ends? If not, I doubt it would be able to support itself freestanding.

It can stand on its own, I suppose but it is not designed for that. If you put tall things in it (like ceran wrap) it might tip over. You should mount it, but beware, it is not easy to mount: it requires precision and I recommend adding a washer to the screw it comes with, otherwise it is a truly unnecessarily tedious job.

Only if it can be attached to the frame. It could be free standing behind the bed (leaning against the wall) but not in contact with the bed/frame for obvious reasons.

You can mount to wall if necc. But it will free stand. Do not know manufacturer.
